Chris,
hummm, I don't really know how to take this msg. 1st, This msg is flows
by really a theme that is really the "goodness of the heart" of just
about everyone. This is not really a business kind of a deal. If you
hang around linux very long you should most likely capture this theme
that is prominent in most linux distros, I can only speak of my
experience for sure. I can say this that regardless who answers you, in
most cases you will get the info you need if it is begotten. Everyone
has their own things they do. Just because some of the really really
knowledgeable users don't jump right in constantly and answer every
little question does not mean anything that everyone has their own
things they are trying to accomplish and their time doesn't provide.
I dunno, but I just have a hard time picturing some of the very advanced
users looking down at anyone because they are new at this. I do know
from my own experience that they will help anyone w/out even thinking of
the level of the users. I have asked too many questions here that were
answered by oh so many to make me ever think any other way on this. You
are messing w/a great bunch of people here that truly play this game in
the spirit of the linux open source.
